Chapter 166: Ambush
The two of them ultimately didn't tell Yuyuan about this matter. Chen Mu helplessly interrupted the chubby guy who was excitedly boasting about his practical abilities.
"Well then, take me there."
"Sure, Senior, what do you need the lubricant for?"
"To build a machine."
Chen Mu didn't know how to explain it for a moment, so he casually replied.
"Wow, you guys have already entered industrialization? That's amazing! After I join, can I be a worker?"
"We will assign tasks and jobs based on everyone's abilities and interests."
Chen Mu suddenly realized that besides the effect of superpowers, this chubby guy seemed to be quite capable. At least he didn't know anything about the 8300 lubricant.
If they were really going to establish an industrial system, talents like him would undoubtedly be needed.
"Wow, so we not only have industrialization but also a clear division of labor in the Dawn Community?"
Do we?
Why don't I know about it?
Chen Mu found that people like Sun Yuan and Yuyuan could really infect others with their emotions. Those with weaker willpower would undoubtedly be misled.
The five of them walked and chatted along the way.
More accurately, it was Yuyuan who was babbling, He Ying occasionally responded with a few words, while Chen Mu and the other two remained silent throughout.
Soon, they arrived at a place next to the wall.
On this side of the wall, there was a row of glass cabinets as long as the rooms. Not only were the cabinets filled with things, but even the gaps between the cabinets and the ground were stuffed.
"Here, it's these."
Yuyuan pointed ahead.
But what Chen Mu saw was not the plastic bottles that Tang Jing had described to him, but several things that looked like ballpoint pens. The front end of the pens was very thin, and the tips were sharp like needles.
"This is the lubricant? Aren't they supposed to be in whole bottles?"
"There are whole bottles too, under the desk over there, but we can't get them out. These few are oil pens. We used them before to move some heavy stuff."
"Why are the oil pens just lying on the ground like this?"
"Hehe, both Teacher Wan and I are not fussy people..."
Not fussy? Isn't that just littering?
Looking at the mess in the room, it was evident.
Chen Mu didn't care about that, he just asked, "Are you sure that these different lubricants won't be mistaken?"
Because he couldn't see the packaging, Chen Mu couldn't confirm whether the oil in these so-called oil pens was the same as what Tang Jing had requested.
"Of course, I am a professional."
Afraid that Chen Mu wouldn't believe him, Yuyuan pointed to several oil pens of different colors and said, "8300 is used on springs, 9010 is suitable for gears..."
Chen Mu was about to tell him it wasn't necessary when He Ying exclaimed, "Is that a soap?"
Everyone turned their heads simultaneously.
They saw a white oval-shaped soap next to the model on the ground, almost used up, with only a thin layer left and already cracked from being dried out.
Obviously, this size of soap was already unusable in the past, and it was probably thrown on the ground by someone "not fussy."
However, this size was terrifying for humans at this time.
Chen Mu understood what He Ying meant.
"Do you want to bring it back?"
"I've been washing with just water lately, but it feels sticky and hard to clean. Although we don't have shower gel, this hand soap will do. If possible..."
After calculating, Chen Mu figured it was enough soap for everyone for a few days, and it wouldn't take up too much space, hardly affecting the size of the aluminum alloy. So he nodded, "Alright, I'll cut off a big piece."
However, just as he was about to approach the soap.
A sudden change occurred.
A cold light shot out from the other side of the cardboard box, aiming directly at Chen Mu's position.
The speed of this cold light was extremely fast, instantly triggering his time adjustment ability.
After several battles, Chen Mu's experience had become richer, and he was no longer flustered by such attacks as before.
He preemptively took out a weapon from his waist and was about to deploy his shield to defend, but a sense of unease surged in his heart.
Almost in an instant.
His thoughts turned rapidly, and the weapon in his hand transformed into a long spear, thrusting towards the attacker.
At the same time, he swiftly sidestepped.
The attacker clearly didn't expect Chen Mu's reaction to be so fast. The offensive trend was momentarily disrupted by the sharp long spear but still continued without letting up.
A "clang" sound.
The two sides brushed past each other.
Only at this moment did He Ying react, while Yuyuan and the others still had no idea what had happened.
After regaining his stance, Chen Mu looked at the long spear in his hand and was stunned for a moment.
The stainless steel long spear was now only half of its original length, turning into a long stick, and the spearhead had been chopped off and fell on the ground nearby.
